Beyond Success – Chapter 7
…often a great leader eagerly accepts a position as a follower. This concept has been called Servant Leadership. Servant leaders are eager to do whatever it takes to support the entire team and its most important outcomes. They lead not by position or title, but instead seek to put the most qualified individual or team in charge of specific projects or campaigns. When it is appropriate for them to step forward and lead from the front, they do so without hesitation. But they are just as comfortable to let go and allow others to carry the ball.
